Hello. I am not a Buddhist, but I am someone with I think some religious OCD and I worry that my existence is negative toward the world. I care deeply for the environment and like to feed birds and plant native gardens to help pollinators and other native fauna and flora. Do these acts generate good karma?

Edit: I have realised that I am uneducated and my perception of karma is inaccurate to how it is viewed in Buddhism. I apologise for this. I am trying to educate myself more in Buddhism and I am reading more about this.

Don't feed wild birds or animals, it is not good for them.

    I am not giving them any food that may be dangerous to them; I have a seed mix intended for feeding wild birds.

    as far as im aware the concept of good karma is not in any religion just in hippie thoughts. Karma is something you are trying to not accumulate like sin.
